Ever since since Boston bred songwriter Edie Carey moved to Chicago, folks here in the Twin Cities have been seeing even more of her, which is good news for her many local fans. She did a killer show at Little Apple House Concerts in April and was back just a couple weeks ago, playing a show at St. Paul's favorite acoustic listening room Ginkgo Coffeehouse. It was a lovely evening of music and community (I finally met the famous Ann Marsden, the talented photographer behind many of Edie's press photos and various Red House projects!), and as always, Edie kept us laughing all night long, on and off stage.

I hear that all of the cool people are moving to the Midwest, yes. To Illinois in particular.
Indeed! What's your ETA?
